Earlier this month, a detective knocked on Shavon Harvey’s door, in suburban Ohio, to ask about her son. The son had sent a Snapchat message from her phone to his friends, saying there would be shootings at several schools nearby.
She rushed to the police station, where her son was already in custody, but the police did not release him. He was charged with inducing panic, a second-degree felony, and officials kept him in detention for 10 nights.
He is 10.
I was on IRC and BB’s by 10.
Being on SC talking to friends and classmates isn’t crazy to me, arresting a kid and holding him for 10 days is tho.
What’s really crazy is a society that lets guns proliferate through it to the point school shootings are common.
no way to stop this says only country where … yadda yadda you know the drill
IRC took some effort to set up, and some patience with the internet back then. These modern methods like snapchat are easy mode
In my day we had to walk uphill both ways to get to the Internet. Darn kids don’t know how good they have it.
